Nubar Elegant Indigo

Pin It
Hello

Only 4 more sleeps til I'm back home with my dogs!!! Cannot wait. Spent about an hour last night looking at pictures of Buster and Charlie. Boy, do I know how to procrastinate?!

Today we have Nubar in Elegant Indigo. EI is part of the Polished Chic Fall Collection 2011. I yearned for it for months and was finally able to purchase it a month or so ago.

Is EI beautiful or what?! With it's deep blackened blue/purple/charcoal grey base and blue to purple colour shifting shimmer flecks it's one of my favourite darks!!!
It didn't receive the best reviews from fellow bloggers, namely because they thought the duochrome was very obvious in the bottle but not on the nail. I on the other hand, think that the colour shift is great on the nail. Perhaps not as strong as n the bottle but I can see it just fine.
Application was ok, I needed the full two coats and the formula wasn't quite as watery as usual for Nubar.

Do you like it too?

  3. Unsurprisingly I do love this! Anything blackened blue/purple etc is gonna be a love for me! I think it's time I tried some Nubar! Where's the best place to get it from that ships to NZ and doesn't charge the earth for shipping?

    1. I have bought my Nubars from various etailers including http://www.nailderoyale.com/catalog/ (they used to have really cheap shipping but have seemed to remove that option now so think it's pretty steep), and http://wowshop.co/ (who seemed to be closed for the next month) but I tend to buy from this ebay seller the most: http://stores.ebay.com/Enchanted-Beauty-Spot/Nubar-/_i.html?_fsub=1411377010&_sid=141380870&_trksid=p4634.c0.m322. The shipping is $1.50 for the first polish and $0.50 for each additional. The polish is $7.50 max which is the same as etailers charge so that's not too bad. They have a pretty comprehensive range too.

    2. THANKS! I've just ordered 4 of their multichromes. I think their shippings gone up to $2 then $1 except that I couldn't work it out and I ended up paying $2 per item? So confused... Oh well, still pretty good and I'm looking forward to trying them out when they arrive! Yay thanks again! :)

  4. I love this colour on you! Anything glitter catches my eye. When I used this colour it turned out more purple which is neat. Love the blog!
